At this moment, the people who appeared beside the protagonist Conan were either related to the upcoming case or to the three-choice Pinot Noir. Moreover, Conan's expression at this moment was not completely relaxed, but with a hint of observation, and I wonder if anything had happened before.

Therefore, Jiang Lai was also eighty percent alert towards Ueda Kariko.

Moreover, if I saw it correctly just now... Miss Ueda first glanced at the masked Kurosawa Akira before turning her gaze to herself.

Is it just a subconscious attention to the more special silver hair? Or does the other party think of gin when seeing the silver hair union?

Jiang Lai thought about it in his mind.

The two of them had already exchanged names. Mao Lilan smiled and helped introduce them, "Mr. Jiang is my high school teacher. The child next to him is Kurosawa Akira, Conan's classmate." Then she said to Jiang Lai, "This is Ms. Ueda, the teammate who drew lots with us for this treasure hunt event in the amusement park."

"Huh? Treasure hunt?" Kurosawa Akira sounded very interested in it.

"Yes. The amusement park officials have placed many special cards throughout the park. We have to find the cards according to the map and clue notes. The more you find, the more prizes you can redeem." Ueda Kariko explained, her beautiful peach blossom eyes were smiling, exuding full of affinity.

The rose scent on her body was very faint, and could only be smelled a little when the wind blew.

"That's it." Mao Lilan nodded and smiled, "Then draw lots to form teams of four. Me, my father, Conan, and Ms. Ueda are the same team."

"Well, the trouble is that I still have to wear this ugly badge—" Maori Kogoro pulled up the round badge with a smiling face and teeth hanging around his neck and complained, "It would be better if the official had a numbered badge instead of a smiling face round badge. This is really weird to wear around your neck."

"It's not ugly at all, Dad. It's even kind of cute." Mao Lilan said, "Besides, only by wearing this eye-catching smiley face sign can you go to various places in the amusement park."

"Hey?" Jiang Lai paid attention to this point. "Can treasure hunt participants go to various places in the amusement park? Including some closed areas? Isn't it dangerous?"

"In theory, you can go to various places. As for the closed area... the official didn't say, but it shouldn't be allowed," Mao Lilan nodded, then hesitated, "and, no matter what, the official will definitely not put the card in those dangerous places..."

That's right. The official won't. Jiang Lai thought. However, some people who want to do other things can use this as an excuse to go to some hidden and dangerous places - even if they are discovered, they can use the excuse that "I was too obsessed with the treasure hunt and came here without paying attention" to make their actions of exploring and wandering in the amusement park not seem abrupt.

Speaking of which, that target came to hand over to another force today and seek asylum? Will the meeting place be lively or remote? However, since there is no prompt in the system that I edited, it is very likely that the person is wandering around an unmonitored corner, or has done some face masking, which affects the system's retrieval.

Jiang Lai was thinking in his mind, but on the surface he was still normal, and nodded, "That's it."

Kurosawa Akira tugged at Jiang Lai's clothes and said expectantly, "I want to play this, too, Brother Jiang Lai!" The young boy is always enthusiastic about treasure hunting activities.

"Why?"

"The official registration location for the treasure hunt is quite far from here... maybe we can go together?" Ueda Kariko said in a friendly manner. She looked at the crowd and smiled, "You two are acquaintances, right? This way, the two kids can play together."

"Ms. Ueda, do you mind?" asked Mao Lilan.

"Of course I don't mind." Ueda Kariko tucked a strand of flax hair behind her ear and replied, "Besides, Jiang-san and Kurosawa-san are both very friendly. We will definitely have more fun together."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment." Jiang Lai responded with a smile, "Ms. Ueda is also very kind."

I don't know if this is his original character or if he wants to get closer to Kurosawa Akira... Jiang Lai doesn't want to get too close to this person for the time being. If he wants to see if he is a Pinot Noir, he can check it from the surveillance video later without getting close.

So Jiang Lai smiled and declined, "Forget it. We don't have a sign now. If we go to a treasure hunt location later, we may not be able to get in. Besides, I promised a friend that I would help him go to the 4D cinema to watch a new movie. You guys just have fun first, maybe we can meet again later."

He looked at Kurosawa Akira again and said, "Let's go check out this month's movies first, and then walk over to the treasure hunt, okay?"

Kurosawa Akira nodded obediently: "Okay——"

However, before the silver-haired boy could finish his words, Ueda Kariko suddenly grabbed Kurosawa Akira!

The next second, a sharp arrow had already pierced the spot where Kurosawa Akira had just stood! The force was so great that the arrow was still trembling after being nailed into the soil!

"!? " Jiang Lai's pupils suddenly shrank.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and screams were heard not far away!

From their position and distance, they could see someone being shot by an arrow, blood spurting out, and a huge mess.

Maori Kogoro's face became serious: "What happened?!"

Kurosawa Akira seemed startled, and his mask almost hit Ueda Kariko. He looked back and saw the arrow stuck in the ground where he had been standing, and his dark green eyes widened.

"...Thank you, Miss Ueda!" Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief, speaking sincerely. He knew that Ueda Kariko had just saved Kurosawa Akira's life. If that arrow had pierced Kurosawa Akira, who was still a child, he would have been seriously injured even if he hadn't died.

"Ah, at least the child is okay." Ueda Kariko also looked frightened. Unlike the calmness and elegance when she pulled Kurosawa Akira over just now, she seemed to have lost her strength at this moment. Her arms were trembling slightly after the stress response, but her face still showed concern, like an ordinary strong and warm-hearted big sister.

She raised her hand and patted Kurosawa Akira gently, saying soothingly, "Are you okay, little friend?"

“…It’s okay.” Kurosawa Akihiro came to his senses, his voice clear and childish, “Thank you, Sister Ueda!”

Conan also looked like he had just reacted. He glanced at Ueda Kariko, who had shoulder-length linen hair, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: What a quick move...!

The arrow was so fast that they were completely unaware of it, but Ueda Kariko was able to pull away Kurosawa Akira at the last moment. It must be said that her reaction and observation abilities are absolutely first-rate!

Jiang Lai also instinctively began to analyze.

Even if the other party behaved like an ordinary older sister afterwards... it would be difficult for ordinary people to react so quickly and accurately.

At this time, their attention was focused on the place where the arrow was shot from. As detectives, Maori Kogoro and his team would naturally go there to check the details.

Coupled with the arrow that was just shot at them, everyone wanted to go there to see what was going on.

As we approached, we could already see the situation on the scene. It seemed that there was something wrong with the archery machine. The machine, which was supposed to aim at the archery field, was completely reversed at this time. Many people in the panicked crowd were grazed or stabbed by the arrows. The most serious one was the man on the ground, who was shot through the throat by an arrow. There was no possibility of survival.

The security personnel and management personnel nearby have begun to calm people down, maintain order, and protect the scene. The dead man's eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly open, and the blood gushing out of his throat wet the ground. Mao Lilan's face showed reluctance.

The police arrived very quickly. As a detective, Kogoro Mouri was able to observe the scene up close. Conan also squeezed over to check the traces left at the scene to determine whether it was an accident or murder.

There are three suspects under control, all of whom were near the archery machine before and after the accident. Two men and one woman, a standard scientific three-choice situation.

One of the men was wearing a mask that covered his entire face and a large loose coat. This image would not have been noticeable in the amusement park, but it looked a bit strange that he had not taken off the mask at this moment.

This was also Kogoro Mouri's first reaction: "I say, sir, in this situation, why don't you take off your mask first? You are wearing this, not to cover up your guilty expression, right?" He said in a doubtful tone.

The man looked reluctant, but when everyone's eyes were fixed on him, he froze for a moment and finally took it off: "Ah... This is so annoying. I've already said that I have nothing to do with the deceased. Can you please let me go?"

When the other party showed his face under the mask, Jiang Lai's expression paused slightly. At the same time, the mobile phone in his pocket also vibrated.

——Hey guys, isn’t this the goal!!

Now he is considered as a criminal suspect!

…No wonder we couldn’t find him before, it turns out he was a group of masked people who sneaked into the amusement park.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced covertly at Ueda Kariko beside him.

The expression of the woman with shoulder-length linen hair did not change. Her lavender eyes looked forward, still with a bit of pity, fear and curiosity at the murder scene. Even when she saw the target person's face after taking off the mask, she did not make any unnecessary movements or expressions.

...Is the other party really an ordinary person who doesn't know the target, or is he just a very good actor?

Jiang Lai was pondering his thoughts in his mind.

In any case, at this moment the system has prompted him that the target has been found. As an ice wine expert, Jiang Lai should send the intelligence information to Pinot Noir and Lei.

I wonder what your reactions and subsequent decisions will be.

Author's words: Jiang Lai: Mee Mee gave both people information fairly, the goal is to see who is alive or dead first~
